Next EOTopo Release

Folks,

Just a very early word on the 2017 release of EOTopo. It is a major piece of work and will put the EOTopo mapset at the very top of all Topo map products in the country. We are currently very busy with a massive road network conflation task. This task is bridging our Streets & Paths road network with our EOTopo road network. See this pic from one of our development workstations showing some roads to the west of Sydney.

The wide red roads represent the streets & paths data with the thinner lines showing the merged EOTopo road network.

The 2017 mapset will be available in USB, SD & Download for the raster versions and also a whole new online raster and vector tile sets for the ExplorOz Traveller product, commercial access and other online & download uses.

Release date - well sorry cannot give that away just yet we have to get past the conflation, merge, update trek and user supplied route files then test and start the build process. But rest assured this will be the biggest update ever under taken in the Topo mapset in terms of the road network and will bring full street level zooms, routing and seemless integration to the EOTopo product set.

We will keep you up to date as we edge closer to bringing you the best map product on the market, but at this stage we wanted to let you know that the next release is coming and is going to be fantastic.

David
